A word from Nikki, the 'Electric Jellyfish' costume creator:

I decided to be a jelly fish because I love the sea and jelly fish are so mysterious. I made my costume from fabric and card board and i put lights in the inside so it would glow at night. I love this costume!

Loved it! Here in Brazil we have Carnival this time of the year. I was wondering...how did you do the hat?

So i was thinking of making this for my Halloween costume! i was wondering if you used a hat as the base for the hat part or you just started with cardboard?? and did you paint the fabric?

I just started with cardboard, I cut a hole in the card board that was a little bit bigger than my head. I put bubble wrap inside to form the shape and then fabric over the bubble wrap. and I painted the fabric to look like a jelly fish!

Great costume. I love how it looks in the dark. What kind of lights did you use and how did you get the tentacles to glow?

Nice! Where did you get the tentacle material that looks like clear bubbles?
